Virtual Visa / Mastercard
Pay for Booking.com and hotels with a virtual card
Booking.com, Airbnb and hotel websites accept Visa and Mastercard. Get a virtual card from GiftyCode, top it up with crypto and pay for bookings online.
How to pay
- Get a card and top it up with the booking amount plus 2% and any deposit.
- Pick an option with online prepayment and enter the card details and its billing address.
- Confirm with the 3-D Secure code from the card page.
- Don't freeze the card until your trip is over — the hotel may charge a deposit or tax.
The card settles in SGD, so 2% is added on top of the merchant amount. Keep a small buffer on the card.
Check before you pay
Choose options with online prepayment: some hotels charge at check-in and ask to see a physical card, where a virtual one won't help.
If the payment is declined
Check the balance including the deposit and the billing address; if the hotel charges at check-in, choose an option with online payment.
Why a GiftyCode virtual card works
- A regular virtual Visa / Mastercard — accepted wherever you can pay by card online.
- Issued online in minutes, no identity verification required — verification only raises your limits.
- Top up with crypto or your GiftyCode balance; every fee is shown before you confirm.
- 3-D Secure codes arrive on the card page and by email; freeze the card in one tap.
Questions
Can I pay for Airbnb?
Yes, Airbnb accepts Visa and Mastercard — payment happens when you book, with 3-D Secure on the card page.
Can I pay the hotel at check-in?
Only if the hotel accepts a card without the physical plastic. Booking with online prepayment is the safer choice.
Do I need to verify my identity to get a card?
No. The card is issued without identity verification; verification only raises your account limits for issuing and top-ups.
How much does it cost?
The issue fee and the top-up fee are shown before you confirm each operation. Purchases carry an extra 2% for SGD settlement, charged by the issuing bank.
